Ever sent a WhatsApp message and immediately spotted a typo or wished you could add something more? Worry no more! WhatsApp has unveiled a game-changing feature that allows you to edit your sent messages, giving you increased control and flexibility over your chats.
How Does This Edit Feature Work?
Easy; simply long-press on the sent message and select ‘Edit’ from the menu within fifteen minutes of sending. To maintain transparency in your chats, an 'edited' tag will be displayed alongside the altered messages.
Your edits will still be made known to the recipients, as edited messages will display "edited" alongside them without showing the edit history. Just like Discord, really.
Your security remains of the utmost importance on WhatsApp. As with all messages, calls, and media shared on WhatsApp, this new edit feature is protected by end-to-end encryption, ensuring your conversations remain private.
This feature is rolling out to users globally and will soon be available to all WhatsApp users in Malaysia. Happy texting, and here's to no more embarrassing typos in your WhatsApp chats!
